My Cup of Coffee...

A great start for a wonderful day,
Every task is accomplish with a hooray,
It works well to keep you ahead and at bay,
Deadlines can be fast forward without delay,

It fills my day with excitement,
Helping me passed each of my appointment,
From morning to night with fulfillment,
Never fails me with astonishment,

Slowly drugging myself with the caffeine,
Initially I thought it was all fine,
Until I realize I can’t even walked on a straight line,
Words coming out of my mouth without define,

The effect of caffeine efficiently downsizing my system,
Although it helps to boost-up my self-esteem,
But what is there to cheer when I can’t even redeem,
Even causing sways in my style of writing poem,

Dear Coffee… your contribution makes me continue to live,
My motto will always be drinking coffee to my believe,
Thank you all these years for keeping me alive,
I will not doubt pursue your journey of lies, denial and love!

Moral of the story: A boy drinking his coffee all the way to seal his own fate...

Ba Zhang…

Heat up with high temperature in a pot,
Best to be enjoy while it’s hot,
Wrap with bamboo leaves around a knot,
Stopping myself from savaging you I cannot,

Just by looking at you my lips starts to wet,
Been thinking of you and have my mind set,
Ba Zhang, Ba Zhang, Ba Zhang I must get,
The taste and juiciness of you I couldn’t forget,

A lifetime journey I have been waiting,
Going from north to south, east to west I have been seeking,
For you to come and make my mouth-watering,
Finally you came and save my day of wanting,

Slowly entering my mouth with great anticipation,
Stickiness of the rice plus mushroom and meat arouses my temptation,
Chewing it over and over again to get the best combination,
Chunks by chunks I swallowed you down till I reached my satisfaction,

Once again I had my greatest moment of sharing,
To have you close to me with my tummy thriving,
Having you more than once and I’m now burping,
My desire for you will only continue and growing…

Life’s Changes…

My life is full of uncertainties,
Cannot be measured and of unknown quantities,
What lies ahead of are all my realities,
Taking a step at a time to face my vulnerabilities,

Past is my history,
Current is my story,
Future is my visionary,
Beyond all is my envied victory,

A few changes since I made my commitment,
To live life fully without any resentment,
Having a good understanding of life’s commandment,
Not to have prejudice and pre-judgment,

Wonder how far I have motion,
From the day I put this into action,
Without much realization and intention,
Will only made my path more difficult and eventual retaliation,

Was once quite stubborn and arrogant,
Only to realize the foolishness and seek repentant,
Over-reacting and over-indulgence makes me feel redundant,
Constantly putting on a self-reminder of the important,

May or may not be the person I aspire,
But to be the righteous one is what I transpire,
Hopefully one day I can put my bad habits to retire,
Before my days are outnumbered and be expired!

Something about Dupree…

Someone who is jobless,
Nowhere to go and homeless,
Handling his life without much thought and careless,
But living each day meaningfully with much bless,

Not the typical guy you can find on the street,
A blessing in disguise if you meet,
His uniqueness and talent will make you feel so sweet,
Taking the positive approach on each problem he greet,

Sometimes when he’s down he maybe moody,
There is always someone to look for who else but his good buddy,
That take cares of him when he is in needy,
Someone he can rely on for advice that may comes in handy,

He is full of surprises and actions,
Always on the lookout for attentions,
But all his actions are of good intentions,
Only for the good of his friendship and for future retentions,

Enjoys spending his time on reading,
To enrich his knowledge and hope to become someone outstanding,
Love poems and enjoys a good writing,
Although his weirdness and slackness could be due to his upbringing,

His understanding of a character is made of “ness”,
From the bottom of his heart with kindness,
Overcoming any negativity with great boldness,
Not to be gulp by the situation and toughness,

He may seem lazy and ignorance at times,
But once he is into actions everything will chimes,
Touching the heart of each individual with his “ness” rhymes,
The day will come where Dupree will shine and prime!

Lazy Weekend...

The weather outside was hot and hazy,
Stuck on my bed that is nice and cozy,
Reluctant to rise up caused I’m lazy,
A sudden headache that makes me dizzy,

This could be well my unproductive day,
Resting and lazing on a morning Sunday,
Everything I see looks like a complex array,
Feeling fatigue and tired due to the sun ray,

Had my brunch while watching fear factor,
Looking at the food served triggered my sensor,
A sudden feeling of nausea thanks to the creator,
Stomach waiting to explode like a nuclear reactor,

Sounds like my typical weekend that is slow and steady,
It’s a good and recommended body and mind remedy,
To restart my engine and make myself ready,
For an upcoming week that is full of storms and windy!

9/11…

Today marked the fifth year,
Insurmountable suffering to bear,
The scream could still be hear,
Shouting and screaming in fear,

Thinking of their loved ones makes you feel so dear,
Although the skies are now clear,
But for those who lost their loved can still feel the sears,
Even from afar we could hear their tears,

Let us all take a moment of silence,
To pay respect for those who fought to the last line of defence,
Without giving up and defiance,
They are our hero and heroin we should used as our reference,

Giving life is abundance,
Taking life in an instance,
For those who had sins should seek for repentance,
In hope of a second chance!

Hei Mee... a.k.a. Prawn Noodle…

Its main ingredients contain of prawn based soup and noodle,
It’s not that oily but shiny when they are mix in a bundle,
It’s the perfect food to eat and to mingle,
Sucking the noodle with great enthusiasm till the soup dribble,

Top layer filled with egg, vegetables and chicken meat,
One look at it you will be drooling and can’t wait to eat,
Adding more sambal to the soup makes the taste hot with extra heat,
No wonder many are willing to do so to give their taste bud that extra treat,

Best to eat during cool weather especially after rain,
It helps you to cool down faster and makes the heat drain,
No matter how spicy or hot the soup is, it’ll eventually be in vain,
But to caution not to burn your tongue with the hot soup that may slain,

The combination of the soup and the ingredients makes the taste so everlasting,
Once you have tasted it, it keeps coming back to you wanting,
The desire for Hei Mee will only continue to be growing,
Only to be met once the desire is filled and satisfying!

The Badminton Player...

He played with all his heart and strength,
Going after each shuttles with great length,
Never wanted to miss that his way,
Sometimes he just dive for the slay,

Aggressive and submissive to the game,
Always finding fault and blame,
Strong-headed and unforgiving that was him,
Only to realize all the while he was too grim,

He may have stumble and fall,
An opportunity in disguise for him to recall,
To forget about the past and gall,
Learning and applying on how to play small,

Playing the game with much more relax,
To have better self-control and not to max,
Slowly loosen up and be anti-climax,
Preventing himself from being tax!

Growing up...

Is a lifelong learning process,
Involved many ups and down without recess,
Requires great patience and perseverance,
Surviving each day by endurance,

Growth meaning to go forward,
Retention meaning to go backward,
Focus on your growth and beyond,
Not to hold back even for a second,

Nothing happen by accident,
They only happen because of incident,
Growing up is not an option,
Waiting for us to take our action,

Some say growing pains,
Some say growing gains,
Whether pains or gains we decide,
Decision made we abide!

Longkang bowler...

I’m the longkang bowler,
Every throws bring the longkang closer,
Never missed the longkang with each roller,
Sometimes I wonder why I’m such a longkang winner,

I may have fallen in love with the longkang,
Tried many styles including the kangkang,
Even throwing ball with me squezzing my pinggang,
Every attempt failed and I’m now benggang,

Orh longkang bowler all around,
What makes us so unique and round,
Desperately in need of a turnaround,
To avoid the lonkang and hit the ground,

Should we just give up and call it a day,
The longkang always seems to stand in the way,
I’m so fed up hoping for the runaway,
Maybe I’m just destined to be the longkang bowler all the way!

Monday Blues…

For those who need to brave through one of the toughest day of the week...

It’s like a disease that affects every soul,
Making you feel weak and foul,
Strikes on the first day of the week,
Its presence makes you look like a freak,

Lack of sleep and rest,
The cause of this unrest,
Impossible to cure it may seem,
But a glimpse of hope that gleam,

It starts by sabotaging your day,
Disarmed your concentration by mid day,
Seeing and doing things with dismay,
Eventually everything falls apart into ashtray,

Not to give in without a fight,
To conquer with all your might,
Not to let our day slip out of sight,
To make it a day as meaningful and bright!

Seeds of friendships…

Roots that build the foundation,
Act as a stronghold that station,
To be able to withstand any opposition,
Constant care and warmth to maturation,

To last through the test of time and evolution,
Requires great patience and undivided attention,
Mutual understanding and tolerance makes up the equation,
Apart from being humble and caring with notion,

May face with challenges and tension,
To pursue it with a sense of starvation,
Not to be fret by the enormity of the situation,
To be handle with care and caution,

Continuous renewal and nurturing are no exception,
Keeping the friendships onboard with traction,
To be able to count the blessings and actions,
I’m thankful and grateful to the creation!

my buddy...

Known her from black-belt training,
Modest in size but reigning,
When she is mad she’ll be screaming,
But most of the time you will see her beaming,

Love to go to gym for some exercising,
Apart from badminton, jogging and swimming,
Working too hard will result in dizzying,
When she is in daze, she looks adorning,

Enjoys chit-chatting and quite playful,
To keep her company zestful,
With her around you can’t be peaceful,
She is there to make your life meaningful,

She is confident and courageous,
Braving all her challenges with her ingenious,
Enjoys good food that are sumptuous,
Always striving to be righteous!

from a buddy...

His name is Eddy,
In team building he is my buddy,
He can be quite funny,
And very crazy...

On his first day I opened the door,
Wah this fella is so tall,
Make me feel so small,
Need to get high heels from the mall...

As time pass we became further apart,
Distance in office plays a part,
However it's not the end,
as it is not too late to mend.

National Day...

We gain independence 49 years ago,
National flag flying from as high as condo,
Showing the spirits of freedom not to be forgo,
Although some are still living with their ego,

Tunku our father of independence,
Not to be forgotten and always in remembrance,
He fought hard with defiance,
To gain us the freedom from the colonial influence,

Malaysia a country we love,
With our all our hearts we groove,
With determination and perseverance as our prove,
Even mountains we could move,

Flying the Jalur Gemilang with pride,
To show a nation of great stride,
Based on the 5 Rukun Negara principles we ride,
To keep in mind side-by-side,

Negaraku is our national anthem,
Singing aloud with the rhythm,
Making it sound like a poem,
For an instance forgetting all my problems,

Vision 2020 is our objective,
To reach there we need to be proactive,
To look beyond our imaginative,
Always stay positive and competitive,

She is made of a country of multi-ethnics,
Not to be undermine with grime politics,
Many try to hurt her with their crafty tactics,
But she will remain strong and static,

Patriotism is what is missing,
To be instill in our thinking,
Whether or not is to our liking,
To made her struggle worth defining!

JY...

In return to JY's poem... thanks JY and here you go!

A great artist with a good sense of humour,
Can easily convert a joke from a rumour,
Makes you laugh and alive from sour,
His jokes can entertain you by hour,

Scribbling and drawing with details,
A wonderful portrait that entails,
Constantly impressed you without fail,
His artistic skills we hail,

Futsal and badminton are his favourite sports,
Kicking and smashing with distorts,
Bringing the game to the next stage,
With his good stamina and early age,

A friend and colleague I treasure,
Our friendship will continue to mature,
Someone you can rely on for sure,
Knowing him is a great exposure!


...and... that's JY!

about me... hmmm...

from JY:
A side of Eddy we never see,
strong and shy,sentimental and crazy,
He carries himselft well with strong dignity,
Did his homework well before it's ready.

Solid and simple is what he used to be,
Concentrate on Winning, is all I can see,
Driving like pirates,signaling with hand sign,
Slow car driver will not in front his line.

Cute toys, neat stuff, and creative poem.
Socialable, helpful, macho and brilliant,
Strong feeling of typical Singaporean,
Passionate for simple and attractive Ipoh-ian.

P/s: Thanks JY! yeah... i'm quite balanced overall... muahahaha... :p

For an old friend...

Known her during my orientation,
Her friendliness got my attention,
Showing me around with her routes,
Our meeting could be due to fates,

Young and petite are her attributes,
Talking to her remind me of my old mates,
It is like we have known each other for ages,
But the fact that we only known for minutes,

As our day passed and the time flies,
Hoping that we could always stay on our lies,
To continue chatting forgetting the hour,
Reality finally caught us up and we detour!

Problems... Troubles...

They are part of our living,
They contribute in our growing,
Without them life is without meaning,
With them life is more thriving,

They help to shape our character,
Making us tougher by greater,
Based on the right values we foster,
Their present would only makes us stronger,

Every cloud has a silver lining,
Every problem requires a solving,
As tough and difficult it posed,
As a man of steel we roused,

Facing it with courage and determination,
In order to get rid of by elimination,
Although it maybe of our creation,
Never to give up and continue with our perseveration!

Bowling...

Focus and concentration are part of the game,
Good Ball control and accuracy to be tamed,
Every wining will bring you to fame,
Every miss will bring you to shame,

A strike to bring down all the ten pins,
The ball hits the pins with a dins,
Breaking the formation by spins,
What is remaining are the ruins,

Strike, strike, strike crying out loud,
The expression on the face that felt so proud,
Is like sunshine overcoming the cloud,
A newborn bean starting to sprout,

A new chapter and story,
Based on practical and theory,
To be told of the victory,
Always reminded of the glory,

A big toast to the winning team,
They strikes hard with a beam,
Making impossible and do wonder,
To be the dream team we yonder!
